The website, savenytips.org, includes information for business owners and workers and links to articles on the tip credit. The Save NY Tips Coalition also recently launched a newsletter on the topic, which people can sign up for through the website.

The coalition was founded by representatives from the New York State Restaurant Association, Empire State Restaurant & Tavern Association, New York State Hospitality & Tourism Association, New York City Hospitality Alliance and the New York State Bowling Proprietors Association.
